2016 WWE SURVIVOR SERIES PARTICIPANTS’ HISTORY

Like I do every month, I decided to write a special blog looking at this year’s WWE Survivor Series Pay-Per-View and each participants’ records and other facts. In the full Survivor Series History, I do not have the partners listed for each wrestler’s Team, but here they are listed, so you can see who was on each team, as well as the eliminations & survivors for their matches. For the full history of the Pay-Per-View, check out the Survivor Series History page HERE on the site.

The 3 Survivor Series Elimination Matches will bring the count to 78, & will be the 14th year in a row there will be Elimination Matches at a Survivor Series PPV. This will be the 1st time since 2009 that there will be 3 Elimination Matches. The opening match has not been announced. If it is an Elimination Match, it will be the 17th time that an Elimination Match has opened the Survivor Series PPV & the 1st since 2013. If it’s the 10 Man Singles Match, it will be Roman Reigns’ 2nd year in a row in the Survivor Series opener & he will be the 1st wrestler since Chris Benoit in 2004 & 2005 to go from the main event to the following year’s opening match, Dean Ambrose & Seth Rollins’ 1st opener since 2013, & everyone else’s 1st ever opening match at a Survivor Series. If it’s the 10-Team Match, it will be The Shining Stars & The Usos’ 1st opener since 2014, Cesaro’s 1st since 2013, Sheamus’ 1st since 2009, & everyone else’s 1st ever opening match at a Survivor Series, & Sheamus will be the 1st since Benoit to go from main event to the following year’s opener. If the 10-Women’s Match opens, it will be everyone’s 1st ever opening match at a Survivor Series, & the 1st time a Women’s Match has opened Survivor Series since a Mixed Tag Team Match in 2000. If the Intercontinental Championship Match opens, it will be The Miz’s 1st opener since 2014, Zayn’s 1st ever Survivor Series opener, & the 1st time ever that the Intercontinental Title has opened Survivor Series. If the Cruiserweight Championship Match opens Survivor Series, it will be both Kalisto & Brian Kendrick’s 1st ever opening match at a Survivor Series, & the 1st time that the Cruiserweight Title has opened Survivor Series since 2004. This will be the 3rd time that there will be a Team Raw at a Survivor Series, after 2005 & 2008, tying it with The Million Dollar Team (1989, 1990, & 1994), as the only Team Names used 3 times for a Survivor Series Team, but Team Orton still has the record of most used Team Name at 4. Smackdown Live does not count since the team is called Team Smackdown Live & not Team Smackdown. This will be the 1st time that multiple teams used the same name at the same event & the 1st time that a Men’s & Women’s Team have used the same name. If there is a Kickoff Match, it will be the 30th match, & 8th year in row. The following wrestlers competed in last year’s Kickoff Match, which was also an Elimination Match: The Ascension, Bo Dallas, Goldust, Neville, & Titus O’Neil. The other roster members that are not on the card to compete in a Kickoff Match were Jack Swagger, who last competed in a Kickoff Match in 2014, Miz, in 2013, Jinder Mahal, in 2012, & R-Truth, in 2010.
